Demon Trappers

Thought this post might take some time, but its....not (sorry couldn't think of anything witty to say -_-).

Demon Trappers by Jana Oliver...

Synopsis:

Riley has always wanted to be a Demon Trapper like her father, and she's already following in his footsteps as one of the best. But it's tough being the only girl in an all-guy world, especially when three of those guys start making her life more complicated: Simon, the angelic apprentice who has heaven on his side; Beck, the tough trapper who thinks he's God's gift, and Ori, the strikingly sexy stranger who keeps turning up to save her ass.
One thing’s for sure – if she doesn’t keep her wits about her there’ll be hell to pay . . .
What I think: At first I found the book kind of hard to really get into. I thought it might be another Twilight wannabe about a good-looking mythical boy and an ordinary girl, but it is so much better than Twilight and about a hundred times better than all those other Twilight wannabes. The great thing about Demon Trappers is that Riley have the whole "I need somebody to save me" attitude, because she is able to watch out for herself. When I was reading the book I also started to fell a little bit depressed for Riley because whenever anything got good for her, something spectacularly bad comes along and ruins it. I guess this is what helps make it such compulsive reading; you want find out if the protagonist comes out better after the hardship. Also just for good measure, the book has some interesting and handsome boy characters to keep you interested, so even a reluctant reader would read this ( and then the reluctant reader would find out how incredibly awesome the book is and would read the book to the very end.  Sneaky ;) ). All in all a very good book with something for everyone and a storyline that will keep you interested to the very end and wanting more.
